1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Google Forms Integration
To integrate Google Forms with Constant Contact, we will use Pabbly Connect. Start by accessing Pabbly’s website and signing in to your account. If you don’t have an account, you can create one for free in just a couple of minutes.
Once logged in, navigate to the Pabbly Connect dashboard. Here, you can create a new workflow by clicking on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. Name your workflow something descriptive, like ‘Google Forms to Constant Contact’. This workflow will handle the automation of adding contacts from Google Forms submissions to Constant Contact.
2. Creating a Google Form for Submissions
Next, create a Google Form that will collect the necessary information from users. In this case, we will create a form titled ‘Dance Party Registration’. This form should include fields such as first name, last name, email, phone number, job title, education qualification, and company.
- Create a new Google Form and title it ‘Dance Party Registration’.
- Add fields for first name, last name, email, phone number, job title, education qualification, and company.
- Make sure to set the form to collect responses in a Google Sheet.
After setting up the form, ensure that every submission will automatically populate a Google Sheet. This sheet will serve as the trigger for our Pabbly Connect integration.
3. Configuring the Webhook in Pabbly Connect
With your Google Form ready, it’s time to configure the webhook in Pabbly Connect. Open your Google Sheet linked to the form and install the Pabbly Connect Webhooks add-on if you haven’t done so already. This is crucial for capturing the form submission data. using Pabbly Connect
Once the add-on is installed, go to Add-ons > Pabbly Connect Webhooks > Initial Setup. Here, you will need to paste the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect into the designated field. Remember to set the trigger column to the last data entry column in your Google Sheet.
- Access the Google Sheet linked to your form.
- Install the Pabbly Connect Webhooks add-on from the Google Workspace Marketplace.
- Copy the webhook URL from Pabbly Connect and paste it into the Initial Setup window.
After setting this up, click on ‘Send on Event’ to ensure that data is sent to Pabbly Connect whenever a new row is filled in the Google Sheet. This step is essential for capturing the responses from the Google Form.
4. Linking Constant Contact with Pabbly Connect
Now that we have the webhook set up, the next step is to connect Constant Contact through Pabbly Connect. In the action window of your workflow, select Constant Contact and choose the action event as ‘Create a Contact’. This allows you to automatically add new contacts based on the data received from the Google Form.
After selecting the action event, you will be prompted to connect your Constant Contact account. Authorize Pabbly Connect to access your Constant Contact account by clicking ‘Allow’. Once connected, you will see fields to map the data from the Google Form to the contact fields in Constant Contact.
Select Constant Contact as the application in the action window. Choose ‘Create a Contact’ as the action event. Map the fields from the Google Form to the corresponding fields in Constant Contact.
Ensure that all required fields are filled correctly and then save your settings. This integration will now allow you to add contacts automatically whenever a new submission is made in your Google Form.
5. Testing the Integration
To confirm that your integration is working correctly, fill out the Google Form with test data. For example, enter details like first name ‘Tom’, last name ‘Cruise’, and other required fields. Once you submit the form, check your Google Sheet to verify that the data is recorded.
Next, log into your Constant Contact account to see if the test contact has been added successfully. You should find the new contact listed with the details you provided. This confirms that Pabbly Connect has successfully integrated Google Forms with Constant Contact, automating the process of adding new contacts.
By following these steps, you can easily set up an automated workflow that saves time and reduces manual data entry. This integration not only streamlines your contact management process but also enhances your marketing efforts through Constant Contact.
